Mayor Hisey, chairman of the

To the Stockholders of the Mexico Mining Co
MEXICO, Mo-, Nov. SIN order
that the stockholders may know

tend to have Mr.. Wolf do the same.

The war is on and, we presume,
will go through the courts, as the
Mining Company has retained Geo
Robertson as its attorney, and the
directors are now unanimously il
favor of boring a 3,000-foot hole a;
contracted for.
